DELE ADEBOLA has been challenged to get 20 goals for Coventry City this season.

The bustling centre-forward chalked up his sixth of the Sky Blues campaign on Saturday against Luton and assistant manager Adrian Heath believes there are plenty more to come from the big man, as long as he can maintain a level of consistency to his game.

"Dele had another good game but we have to keep telling him that he can't let his performances drop," said Heath ahead of tomorrow night's home game with his former club Stoke City.

"When he is playing at full tilt he is a real handful to play against and I keep telling him that when he isn't at full tilt I could mark him on a Saturday, which doesn't go down too well with him. But it has to be said.

"We need another big performance out of him against Stoke because we can't afford for him to be black and white. He has got to be somewhere in the middle.

"He is very much a confidence player and he has had his ups and downs in his career. But he has got six goals and it is a good start for him considering how many games we have played.

"I have said to him he should be looking at 20 goals this season and if he is going to do that he can't afford lulls in the season where he goes four or five games without scoring.

"He has got to maintain that one goal every two to three games and if he does that then he will have done us a big turn this year."

City are currently running the rule over right winger Anthony McParland from Celtic.

The 23-year-old is on trial and hoping to impress enough to get a loan spell with the Sky Blues and fill in what has been a problem position for the club. n CITY'S December trip to Queen's Park Rangers has been switched from Saturday 17 to Monday 19 (8pm) for live coverage by Sky Sports.
